Not strictly true. Just use an HD ROM.
RcHDMix or SuperVillainHD
EDIT - Yes, I'm registered and in now on my desire.
Looking at a list of the following to download:
- Wallpapers
- Scenes
- Skins
- Sound Sets
- Ring Tones
- Alarm Sounds
- Notification Sounds
On the website, you can track your phone's location, although mine thinks I'm in Africa...
Haha... just found a great feature - 'Make phone ring at full volume' - BANG - my phone starts ringing to the suprise of my colleagues.
Seriously, get an HD ROM on your phone and check it out! Very nice indeed.

...and it works... :d:d

It keeps telling me 'Phone Finder' is disabled on my phone but it damn well is.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Im using RCMix HD ROM on my Desire.

Yep, still no camera fix

Thought even i wouldn't move to the HD rom until the cam is fixed but have to see the htcsense.com now

Anyone tried with the Desire to see whap happen? Is possible to use? (Is a stupid question?)

You can't as it asks you to select your device when registering. You need the HTC Hub app on the phone to connect to it...
Having said that, issues I've found with the site is the location not working (says disabled when it's enabled on the phone) and HTC Hub on the site crashed and wouldn't load content again

everything work fine to me in Serbia. First it show me location somewhere in Indian Ocean but then i refresh my location on phone (google maps). Yes the site sometimes show error but after 2 sec it displays everything ok.

Ah, not used Maps yet, will give it a blast
EDIT: It thinks I'm off the coast of Nigeria - hahahaha!!
EDIT EDIT: Now has my correct location. This is pretty sweet

Is there any chance to get only the HTC Hub app and install it on another ROM?
(for example OpenDesire, because even if it doesn't evolve anymore, it's still the one I prefer...)

I don't think so as it is a Sense app. I may be wrong tho

In-Call Recording

I am really close to ordering a Desire Z from bell canada to use on ATT here in the states.
It will be replacing my Sony Experia X1A. It seems to be able to do everything the Xperia can but I am unsure about in-call recording.
My Xperia clearly records both sides of the call and saves them to the SD card.
It took a long time for the Experia to get hacked enough for this to be possible, but because the Z and the Ex are both HTC phones at heart, I am optimistic.
Is this possible on the Desire Z?

The app market has apps to do this

HAHA this would be great for Prank Calls XD

"Total Recall" can do this.

if you can take speakerphone recording, then there are many apps on the market to do that.
otherwise, you may have to find another phone......
i have a little overview here...

I just got the following email back from Killer Mobile Software when I asked if it would work:
Feedback says no - caller side audio will be very low.
Stay Killer My Friend,
Killer Mobile Software

I can confirm that in-call recording is a problem on Desire Z / G2.
Incoming audio is low-quality and low-volume.
Total Recall seems to be the best choice for Desire Z atm. (I tried nearly every app.)
rVoix seems promising, but requires root:

The phone I am ordering will come rooted, and I fully expect that I would have to root it anyway.
Thanks for the link on rVoix. I am following up with him to see about getting it up on the Desire Z.

I haven't tried but I think it has a >90% chance of working.
Recording with the help of speakerphone is doable on most, if not all, phones. The problem is that the quality of the other side is relatively poor.
If you really need true 2-way call recording, check out the thread I mentioned earlier, you may have to get another phone.

I like this app called "sanity" it has lots of features and one is recording.

Skype v2.0.0.45 - hack possible to use videocall on SGS2?

Hey, there's a much needed skype update out enabling video calling. However the new version, Skype v2.0.0.45, only allows/enables video calls on Nexus S, HTC's Desire S, and the Xperia Neo and Pro.
Any chance to hack it to work on the SGS2?
ETA: Sorry forgot to add [Q] on the thread title...

would be awesome, here's the apk if someone wants to try out, everything works except videocalling.

I dont know why it is just for 4 devices , the GS2 has the best front camera on a smartphone , i wish they will hack it like google talk .
waiting for a Dev to speak

use tango for video calling

hi,
Im no developer, but I've extracted this skype .apk file attached above and i found a file classes.dex, which contains something like this:
{white:[{name:"HTC Saga", mft:"(?i)HTC", board:"(?i)saga",model:"(?i)HTC saga", product:"(?i)htc_saga", device:"(?i)saga"},{name:"HTC Desire S", mft:"(?i)HTC", board:"(?i)saga", model:"(?i)HTC Desire S", product:"(?i)htc_saga", device:"(?i)saga"},{name:"Nexus S", mft:"(?i)samsung", board:"(?i)herring", model:"(?i)Nexus S", product:"(?i)soju", device:"(?i)crespo"},{name:"Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo",mft:"(?i)Sony Ericsson",brand:"(?i)SEMC",board:"(?i)unknown", model:"(?i)MT15[ai]", product:"(?i)MT15[ai]_.*", device:"(?i)MT15[ai]"},{name:"Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro",mft:"(?i)Sony Ericsson",brand:"(?i)SEMC",board:"(?i)unknown", model:"(?i)MK16[ai]", product:"(?i)MK16[ai]_.*",​
I don't have any idea will it help to hack it in any way, but really hope so

Time for some pwnage of this app methinks

Op! Please edit topic as SGS section has an around universal apk working on many nb devices including sgs 1 and 2.
Sent from my SGS running on MiUi 2.3.4 using XDA Premium App!

Just installed on LG O2X: it keeps Force Closing. too bad. I saw that there was an other, older version. Gonna try it.
EDIT
well none of above versions work on mu O2X: when hit the camera button, the screens goes in landscape (still, the autorotation is disabled).
When firstly making a skype call and then hitting the video buttn, the application FC. so, so bad :-(

i use version from villainrom.co.uk and video calls on my sgs2 works great switch between camera too

Download Gemini apps manager from market and remove from autorun all system events like on boot completed, on connectivity change, on package install, etc.
Don't touch unknown events (usually uppercase) or it won't work unless you see it still active and remember that this way you won't be able to answer incoming call when program is closed (that's why it keeps reopening)

How do you enable video? I've installed it, but there's no option for video call... only the regular.
Edit: nevermind that: I uninstalled the previous first, and after the first force-close, the second time it worked fine. Awesome job. Thanks pulser!

I think your confused as to what I'm referring to. I'm talking about apps to find out where planets are.

the one v does not have a compass so programs like sky maps won't align themselves with the sky automatically and they act all jittery. you need to turn on some sort of manual mode and drag the map around with your finger. i use google sky map this way.

Thanks. I was wondering if there was one with a GPS compass. My GPS apps can tell which way I'm moving when I am. I was reading about 2 or 3 different kind of compass modes. The compass is the one thing I'm regretting buying my One V over. Probably gonna switch up to a OneS. Thank you for the helpful response. Cheers.

HTC internet browser dismantled from play store

This is a very sad news, the play store reports that the HTC Internet Browser will be removed on November 30. This has been my internet Browser since always and I can't believe it's going away. It was the best. It seems that HTC it's so money lacking right now that it's basically removing all the sense applications that has made HTC famous. The HTC 10 has basically google stock interface. It's a great shame, this way they will never re-gain their market share. They cannot sell a top phone with android stock interface.

They can, and they do it. But your right.
alternative look for Gello MOD here on xda.
very good feeling

Yes , but I can't get it for htc 10 . Play store replies "Not available for your device."
But I 'l get over it. I m using my Moto X Play as guinea pig to change the ROMS . So far I m having fun
Getting to understand the dialect and function. It's a fun challenge for sure.

You can install it on HTC 10.... That's why I posted you the link. You can't install it from Playstore. Apkmirror will have the latest version.
Both CM (LOS) and Sense htc10 this works on.

Anyway it really is a shame that the HTC 10 is a wonderful device at hardware level but it doesn't have all the magic of HTC sense Software anymore, they are in financial crisis and they are basically killing off the sense. This way they won't get better, no one wants to buy an expensive HTC device with Android stock interface...

My apology , I was on Maggoo mode I guess. I will work my way towards Lineage instead. I have "Ginea pig" my Moto X with CM13 and I love it. No more google invasion !! Just bare minimum.

No apology necessary. It's unfortunate how they block our devices from downloading the applications from Playstore. I was able to fix an issue with a FC on Sense but it wasn't anything that made it unusable, just when trying to set a background in Themes App, it would FC, but that's fixed. On LOS the one and only issue is unable to set your User picture, not anything to worry about. I set it with another gallery app and then all good to go.
LOS ROMs are running great, I suggest Ressurection Remix personally, has the most customization. Offers great support, runs smooth, and battery is very good. Only thing is no Advanced Calling (on all LOS ROMs) but maybe that will come with time.
